Özet:

Humor that arises from the need of people to criticize individuals or events in social life, although it is built on the fact of laughter, it also plays the role of a defense mechanism produced by social conscience. Humor, which has a characteristic of making truth acceptable, has been frequently used in the Turkish press history. The number of humorist newspapers/magazines that have the characteristic of being the right voice in the humorous publication that develops from the beginning to the present with a Marxist perspective is small. From the time it was published (1947-1962) in Turkey, the Serdengeçti Magazine, which is just screaming the many facts that are not said, has the character of being a publication that is worth the study with the theme of the "Smile Facts" which finds a special place in both its content and in every number. This study analyses the sense of humor that the Serdengeçti magazine, which was only 33 numbers available between 1947 and 1962, revealed during the one-party and multi-party transition period (1947-1950 CHP power), the 10 year Democratic Party period and the National Union Government, which was established as a result of the May 27 1960 coup, and the then-powered CHP-AP coalition. The results of the sense of humorous publishing in the period of different powers have been assessed in the context of freedom of expression and ethics of publishing. In the research on the humoristic articles published in the Serdengeçti Magazine, the quality content analysis method was used. In the framework of the research that has an impressive study characteristic, the relevant magazine numbers have been studied and the humor language has been addressed and the emphasis on humor has been discussed through examples.
